Drivers could experience detours on US-77 between K-4 and the US-77/56 intersection beginning Tuesday, according to the Kansas Department of Transportation.

The closure is due to road work and bridge replacement in Dickinson County. The bridge being replaced is on US-77 just north of Herington. The shoulders of the surrounding roads are being lowered to create safer shoulder slopes. The nearby guardrail will be removed.

The project is scheduled to be completed on or about Dec. 5, weather permitting. The project cost is $1,827,390.65.
